"In a world of franchises which rake in hundreds of millions of dollars, every studio wants one sure fire franchise. Paramount recently bought "Shrek" with its DreamWorks acquisition; Warner Brothers has the very profitable "Harry Potter;" a Warner sister company, New Line, broke records with "The Lord of the Rings." Fox is home to the "Fantastic Four," granted, but with the "Alien" and "Predator" hybrid "Alien vs. Predator" spawning only one sequel since the 2004 installment and last year´s "Eragon" coming up DOA at the box office, the studio tries its hand with another book-turned-hopeful-movie-fran chise with "The Seeker: The Dark is Rising," based on a series of novel´s by Susan Cooper.
